Default how to convert t56 to sequential shift pattern?

i know there's been threads on this before but does anyone know if a Brog&Warner t56 can be converted to sequential shift pattern while keeping the clutch?

do you think it possible to do it in your garage(if you know what your doing) without buying some super expensive dog box conversion kit,
would it be done by just rearranging the shifter linkage with helical gears or rearrange the linkage and install straight cut gears?

what do you think would be a estimated price?

Don't think it is possible to convert an H-pattern transmission to a straight up and straight down sequential .

You can't convert a T56 to be setup like that.

So certain, so absolute, and yet so wrong...
